None from me. Although I'd rather put all that stuff (including kernel_map_page, as a cleanup) into arch_free_page and arch_alloc_page, rather than teaching core code about unstable pages just yet. [BTW, if you do this, one actually notices that arch_free_page seems to be in the wrong place since the page reserved checks came into the allocator.] > > The code runs well on s390 and does nothing for all other archs. > Patches are against 2.6.18-rc4-mm2. > -- SUSE Labs, Novell Inc.
